Daily News Reporter Has No Trouble Getting Fake ID

Those are the broad strokes of New York Daily News City Hall reporter Corinne Lestch’s recent visit to the thriving fake ID economy on Roosevelt Ave. in Queens. With one minor caveat:

City and state authorities lauded the rollout last September of the new licenses — polycarbonate cards that toned down color and enhanced security — saying they would be much more difficult to forge.
